The Sully combination met with
another enthusiastic reception last
night. The hall was about as full OF
people as 1t could hold.

A force of men are engaged on
street between Howard and Mill.
This will be handsome addition to
that business thorOughfare.
The fire department holds another
meeting tomorrow evening for the
purpose OF considering the advisable.
ity of moving in the matter of in.
dulging in tournament this fall.
Had there beeu an opera house in
this city during the Sully engage.

nightly. The town Is sadly in need
OF a commodious hall for entertain
ments.

Willis magnificent new block on
Riverside avenue will be known as
the "Falls City Block" The large
square design upon which is the
legend as given above is the work
Of j. II. Boyd & Co.
The sidewalks about town are in a
frightful state Of delapidation and as
irregular as "a man with bad habits.
With the enterprise the public has
displayed 1t seems singular that this
important matter has received no at
tentiOn at all.

i
decided shortage OF prints. The ty.

A rumor has been in circulation to
the effect that the Washington and
Idaho Fair Association was not to hold

fair.
The game of ball between the Sui

In many places about town the
principal streets are becoming un-
even and knobby, not only detract-
ing from their appearance but maxi
ing them rough for travelling. This
is caused by putting in sewer and
water pipe and failure to level off
the ground. There is no use of
spending money to grade streets II
this practice is to continue in vogue.

is a conspicuous sign of prosperity.
